1.0 IN TR ODUC TI ON
Drainage is the process of interception and removal of water from over, and under the
vicinity of the road surface. Drainage can be surface (where water is conveyed on the
road surface and drainage channels), or subsurface (water flows underneath the
pavement structure).
Surface and subsurface drainage of roads critically affects their structural integrity, life
and safety to users, and is thus important during highway design and construction.
Road designs therefore have to provide efficient means for removal of this water; hence
the need for road drainage designs.
Drainage facilities are required to protect the road against damage from surface and sub
surface water. Traffic safety is also important as poor drainage can result in dangerous
conditions like hydroplaning. Poor drainage can also compromise the structural
integrity and life of a pavement. Drainage systems combine various natural and man
made facilities e.g. ditches, pipes, culverts, curbs to convey this water safely.
1.1 Historical Background:
This road is located along Olenguruone Street opposite Mau milk cooling plant fence. It
is unpaved road and is under the Nakuru county government.Also paved road next to
this road has severally fail and need side drainage
1.2 Problem Statement
According to this problem of lacking side drainage along this road, the soil surrounding
the fence has been eroded by the water flowing during the rain, also because of water
during the rain is passing on the road, potholes has occurred on top of this road.
Therefore a drainage system has to be designed. However, the existing road along this
street is showing signs of failure, caused mainly by lacking of drainage. Also it is better
to have good method of designing a side drainage in order to overcome these problems
arises on this road.
1.3 Objectives
1.3.1 Main objective:
Design of an efficient drainage system along this road.
Specific Objectives:
To determine the catchment area and the expected flow.
To collect design information for drainage system.
To determination of runoff onto the road and discharge of water.
To design of the drainage channels using results obtained.
1.4 Scope of the project:
This project is confined only to designing a drainage system for the road along this road.
1.6 Significance of the project:
The outcome of this project shall help to propose the lay out for the new side drainage in
order to fulfill its requirements as a drainage, such as to drain off excess water on
shoulder and pavement edge which cause considerable damage and improve pedestrian
safety using side walk ways near side drainage.

2.0 LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1Introduction
Highway drainage is the process of interception and removal of water from over, under
and in the vicinity of the pavement.
Highway drainage is one of the most important factors in road design and construction.
If every other aspect of the highway design and construction is done well but drainage is
not, the road will quickly fail in use due to ingress of water into the pavement and its
base.
The damaging effects of water in the pavement can be controlled by keeping water out of
places where it can cause damage or by rapidly and safely removing it by drainage
methods.
Improper drainage of roads can lead to;
Loss of strength of pavement materials
Hydroplaning
Mud pumping in rigid pavement
Stripping of the bituminous s surface in flexible pavements
Types of drainage
There are basically three types of drainage applied to highways that ;
Subsurface drainage
Surface drainage
Cross drainage
SUBSURFACE DRAINAGE
Subsurface drainage is concerned with the interception and removal of water from
within the pavement. Some of the sources of subsurface water include; infiltration
through surface cracks, capillary rise from lower layers, seepage from the sides of the
pavement to mention but a few.
Application of side slopes on the road surface, installing of drainage beds in the
pavement and use of transverse drains are some of the measures of effecting subsurface
drainage.
SURFACE DRAINAGE
Surface drainage deals with arrangements for quickly and effectively leading away the
water that collects on the surface of the pavement, shoulders, slopes of embankments,
cuts and the land adjoining the highway.
The main source of surface water in most places is precipitation in form of rain. When
precipitation falls on an area, some of the water infiltrates in to the ground while a
considerable amount remains on top of the surface as surface run off.
MEASURES ADOPTED FOR SURFACE DRAINAGE
The proper cross slope should be provided for both to pavement and shoulders
The subgrade should be sufficiently above the highest level of ground water table
or the natural ground level
Side drainage should have to be provided at edges of right-of-way where the road
is in embarkment and the edge of the roadway in cutting
On hill roads, water may flow towards the road depending on the slope and
rainfall
Catch water drains should be provided to intercept the flow down.
COLLECTION OF SURFACE WATER
The water collected is lead into natural channels or artificial channels so that it does not
interfere with the proper functioning of any part of the highway.
Surface drainage must be provided to drain the precipitation away from the pavement
structure.
CLASSIFICATIONOF SIDE DRAINAGE
There are different types of road side drainage, classified according to the type of
construction, which is as follows;
Trapezoidal surface drainage
V-shaped lined surface drainage
Urban surface drainage
CROSS DRAINAGE
When stream have to cross a roadway or when water from a side drainage have to be
diverted to water course across the roadway, then a cross drainage work such as culvert
or small bridge is provided.
On less important roads, in order to reduce the construction cost of drainage structures,
sometimes submersible bridges or course way are constructed. During the flood the
water will flow over the road.
REQUIREMENT OF HIGHWAY DRAINAGE SYSTEM
The surface water from the carriage way and shoulder should effectively be
drained off without allowing it to percolate to sub grade
The surface water from the adjoining land should be prevented from entering
the roadway.
The surface drainage should have sufficient capacity and longitudinal slope to
carry away all the surface water collected.
Flow of surface water across the road and shoulders and along slopes should
not cause formation of erosion.
DESIGN OF SURFACE DRAINAGE
Hydrological analysis
Hydraulic analysis
2.3 Hydrological analysis
This deals mainly with precipitation and runoff in the area of interest. When rainfall,
which is the main source of water, falls onto an area some of the water infiltrates into
the soil while the remaining portion either evaporates or runs off.
The portion that remains as runoff is the one of major importance in the design of
surface drainage facilities.
2.4 Determination of runoff
Runoff at a particular point is determined with respect to a given catchment area and
depends on a number of factors such; type and condition of the soil in the catchment,
kind and extent of vegetation or cultivation, length and steepness of the slopes and the
developments on the area among others.
The following formula known as the rational formula is used for calculation of runoff
water for highway drainage.
Q= 0.028CIA
Where:
Q is maximum runoff in m3 per sec
C is a constant depending upon the nature of the surface
I is the critical intensity of storm in mm per hour occurring during
the time of concentration.
A is the catchment area in km2
HYDRAULIC DESIGN
Once the design runoff Q is determined, the next is the hydraulic design of drains. The
side drainage and other structures are designed based on the principles of flow through
open channels.
If Q is the quantity of surface water (m3/sec) to be removed by a side drainage and V is
allowable velocity of flow (m/s) on the side drainage, the area of cross section A of the
channel (m2) is found from the relation below:
Q=A.V
The velocity of unlined channel must be high enough to prevent silting and it should not
be too high as to cause erosion. The allowable velocity should be greater than one
(1m/sec) for lined channel.
The slope S of the longitudinal drain of known or assumed cross section and depth of
flow ,may determined by using Manning’s formula for the design value of velocity of
flow V, roughness coefficient n and hydraulic radius R.
Manning’s Formula
V=1/n*R2/3*S1/2
Where:
V=Average velocity m/sec
n=Manning’s roughness coefficient
R=Hydraulic radius
S=Longitudinal slope of channel.
Manning’s Roughness coefficient is
N=0.02 for unlined ordinary ditches
=0.05 to 0.1 for unlined ditches with heavy vegetation
=0.013 for rough rubble
=0.04 for stone riprap
=0.015 for pipe culverts
Hydraulic Radius=Cross sectional area
Wetted perimeter
Time of concentration (t c)
Time of concentration is that time required for water to travel all al the way from
catchments area to the designed element.
The time taken by water to flow along the longitudinal drain is determined from the
length of the longitudinal drain L the nearest cross drainage or a water course and
allowable velocity of the flow V in the drain.
T = V/L
The total time for inlet flow and flow along the drain is taken as time of concentration or
the design value of rain fall duration.
T c = T1+ T2
Where,
T1- is overland flow time in minutes
T2- is channel flow time in minute
T1 = [0.885 L^3/H]^0.385
Where,
L = the length of overland flow in km from critical point the
mouth of the drain. .
H = total fall of level from the critical point to the mouth of the drain in
meters.
Note;
- From the rainfall intensity –duration- frequency curves the rainfall I is found in
mm/sec. Corresponding to duration T and frequency of return period.
The required depth of flow in the drain is calculated for convenient bottom width and
side slope of drain. The actual depth of the open channel drain may be increased slightly
to give a free body. The hydraulic mean radius of flow R is determined.
The required longitudinal slope S of the drain is calculated using Manning formula
adopting suitable value of roughness coefficient.

DATA PRESENTATION
In case of this road, open side drain of trapezoidal and rectangular have to be provided
for disposing of surface water collected. The first step will be to estimate the amount of
surface water flowing, the amount of surface water depend upon the intensity of rainfall,
amount of rainfall, nature of the soil and topographical of the area. Therefore the
quantity of water that can be handled by this ditch or drain can be estimated.

DETERMINATION OF RUNOFF
Run off at a particular point is determined with respect to a given catchment area and
depends on a number of factors such as type and condition of the soil, kind and extent of
vegetation (cultivation), length and steepness of the slope and development of the area
among the others.
PEAK DESIGN FLOW
This is the maximum flow rate of a flood wave passing a point along a stream. As the
wave passes the point, its flow increases to the maximum and recedes. It is a major
factor in culvert designs, and its magnitude is dependent on the section of the return
period.
CATCHMENT AREAS (Area data)
Unpaved gravel road surface and shoulders
Length of the area=0.685km
Width of the area=0.008km
Area=Length*Width
=0.685*0.008
Area=0.00548km2
Area of land on the other side drain
(Build up area )=0.021*0.8
=0.02km2
Area covered with grass
=0.0234*0.1
=0.00234km2
Total catchments area
=0.03km2
Surface runoff coefficient (C)
Coefficient of gravel surface=0.35
Coefficient of build up=0.8
Coefficient of soil covered with grass=0.1
Therefore C1=0.35, C2=0.8, C3=0.1
Weighted value of runoff Coefficient
C = C1A1 + C2A2 + C3A3
A1 + A2 + A3
C = 0.35*0.00548 + 0.8*0.02 + 0.1*0.00234
0.00548 + 0.02 + 0.00234
C = 0.652
Therefore the runoff coefficient (C) =0.652
Peak flow (Q)
From the formula below;
Q=0.278*C*I*A
Where;
Q= Quantity of rain water surface runoff in m3/sec
C= Surface runoff coefficient
I= Maximum rainfall intensity in mm/hour
A= Size of surface area to be drained in km2
C= 0.652
I= 433.6mm/hour
A= 0.03km2
Q= 0.278*0.652*0.4336*30000
60 *60
Q= 0.655m3/sec
Therefore, Quantity of rain water surface runoff (Q) =0.655m3/sec
CHAPTER FOUR
DESIGN OF NEW SIDE DRAINAGE
Trapezoidal section
Cross section area (A) of the side drainage required will be obtained from the formula
below;
Q = A*V
Where;
Q = Quantity of rain water surface runoff in m3/sec
A = Cross section area in m2
V = Velocity of flow in m/sec
Q = 0.655m3/sec
V = 1.5m/sec for lined structure
A =?
A = Q/V
A = 0.655/1.5
A = 0.437m2
Therefore, the required cross section area is 0.437m2
Consider the trapezoidal section below:
B=0.5+2D
B=0.5+2d 150mm free water body
S=1:1 d D
b=500mm
Required dimensions;
Suppose the bottom width (b) =0.5m
Side slope (S) 1:1
Free water body = 0.15m
Vertical height (d) =?
Horizontal length (B) =?
From the formula
Area = 0.5*(B + b)*d
Area (A) = 0.437m2
B = 2d+0.5m
B = 0.5m
d =?
0.437 = 0.5*(2d + 0.5+ 0.5)*d
0.437 =0.5 (2d + 1)*d
d2 + 0.5 d-0.437 = 0
d = 0.46m
B = (2* 0.46) + 0.5 =1.41m
D = 0.46 + 0.15 = 0.61m
Required section
1.72m
B=1.41m
S=1:1 d=0.37m D=0.0.61`m
b=0.5m
Effective Area (A) =0.5*(0.5+1.41)*0.46
A effective =0.44m2
Wetted perimeter is equal to the total length of the wetted area.
=Length of two side slope + Bottom length
Where;
Bottom length =0.5m
Length of side slope is calculated below
d=0.455m
d=0.46m
s
From Pythagoras theorem,
S2=d2+d2
S= (0.4552+0.462)1/2
S=0.65m
Wetted perimeter=0.52+0.52+0.5
=1.8m
Longitudinal slope
From Manning’s formula
V=1/n*R2/3*S1/2
S= (n*V/R2/3)2
Where;
S=Longitudinal slope
V=Velocity of flow in m/sec
R=Hydraulic Radius
n=Manning’s roughness coefficient
Hydraulic Radius=Cross section area ÷ Wetted perimeter
R=0.44 ÷ 1.8
R=0.24
n=0.04
V=1.5m/sec
S2= [0.04*1.5 / (0.2)2/3]
S=0.03
Therefore, the proposed slope for the side drainage is 0.03
Design for rectangular section
From the formula
Q = A* V
Where Q, A and V are already defined before
Q = 0.437m/sec
V = 1.5m/sec
A =?
Q = A*V
0.437=A*1.5
A = 0.29m
Required dimension
Suppose the bottom width = 1.2m
Free water body = 0.15m
Vertical height =?
Consider the formula of rectangular section
Area (A) =Height * Width
Height (D) =?
Width (b) =1.2m
Area = 0.437m
0.437 = 1.2*d
d =0.36m
D =0.36 + 0.15m
D =0.51m
DIAGRAM
Longitudinal slope
Also is calculated from the Manning’s formula
V = 1/n*R^2/3*S^1/2
R = Area
Wetted perimeter
Wetted perimeter = (1.2) + (0.36*2)
= 1.72
R = 0.437
1.72
R = 0.23
n =0.04
V =1.5m/sec
S = 1.5*0.04/0.23^2/3
S =0.02
CONCLUTION
After this research many problems were discovered such as potholes, corrugations,
water lodging, ruts ,erosion on the edge of the road as the result of inspection, practical
checking of the whole road and all areas surrounding the road. In order to maintain the
life span and purpose of the road as designing Road side drainage of adequate size and
capacity, the discharge and all dimensions produced can be used for the construction as
it designed.
RECOMMENDATION
Due to the condition of the drainage along Olenguruone street road is not satisfactory,
this problem must be taken into consideration together with the information gathered
on the road condition.
